Should have been completed long ago as a statement of intent for this season and not just a panic buy. It's just cheap skating while the ice has melted! Poor messaging to the player, our team, the manager (ffs get rid!) but most of all to all our supporters. Parish get your act together!!!

Yeah, but we wanted to play it smart. Plan A: chalk some points on the board in our first three games, adopt an air of indifference as we prove that we don't really need Sakho and watch the Liverpool resolve crumble.
In reviewing this we are now reverting to Plan B: Capitulate and agree to everything, and if needed plead on bended knee as we throw out all our plans and hope that Sakho will single handedly save the sinking ship.

The ship isn't sinking

Sakho would give the team a remendous lift and sort out the defence. Immense player.

Sakho played eight games and then got injured for months.

I like him but 30 million? On a centre half? I think people are too slot A into slot B about this.

We have good enough defenders already and have already brought in two. We need to score goals.

We need a winger and a striker and a revision to a tactical system that the players feel comfortable with.

He has to be rated on the value he brings to the team and in that respect he's proven that he's invaluable.

In financial terms, in the Mickey Mouse irreality of the "EPL" £30 million is a p1$$ in the ocean.

Although I can see the benefit blowing our entire budget on just one player would be utter folly.

We need a gk and centre forward min....which we won't get if we sign sakho.

If we sign sakho as good as he is we will go down.

We need Sakho plus a striker or two, or Benteke to try moving a bit. A team that hasn't scored in 7 out of 8 games doesn't just need a centre back.

I Can see it now in de boer's next interview after transfer window and sakho has gone to wba "yes we had a lot of options for centre backs unfortunately none of them worked out "

Sakho makes others around him look good. The guy quality, we need a lift. He's a must can't see Liverpool accepting less than the 30m though.

We have been in the Premiership for five years now. Dann and Tomkins and Kelly plus Ward have been a large part of that.

Our problem has been the managers rather than the players.

I'm a broken record on this one, but that is where our hard-earned pennies should be directed. But who is available that is worth buying?

I think we desperately do need Sakho to bring defensive stability and leadership. Kelly gave away two goals yesterday, and we just cant afford that. However, I also agree with everything else you say, so lets hope we get in all the reinforcements we need. We actually played 3-5-2 yesterday, so hopefully FdB is learning flexibility. In the second half, the team played much better, so I dont think FdB has lost the dressing room yet. If we were to sack FdB presumably Freedman would come in as caretaker? And I am not sure that yet change of manager would do us any good.
